Re: Nokia N97

Here is a review i posted in another thread around here, quite a while back:

iPhone OS 3.0

Pros
** - **New features, such as copy and paste text/photos

  • 3G tethering, which allows you to connect your phone to your laptop to use it as a modem for net access
  • landscape keyboard has been added to SMS, mail and notes
  • shake to shuffle feature, which allows you to literally shake the phone to shuffle your music!
  • Third party Application features which adds the possibility of over 1000 new APIs to extend the capabilities of new Applications

Cons
Uhm… i can’t think of any :konfused:

Nokia N97

Pros:

  • Good spec,
  • Massive storage of 32GB of storage (expandable to 48GB),
  • Good connectivity,
  • Decent keyboard,
  • Long battery life.

Cons:

  • Crappy touch interface design,
  • Applications are not optimised well for touch, camera is 5mp but pics come out looking crappy at full crop,
  • Media playback features seem underpowered; the N97 has some good hardware, but can’t quite manage the interface and apps to handle all that power

:chai:

Re: Nokia N97

I have both iPhone and N97 plus my dad is using iPhone too so he knows about things so much more than I do. iPhone is more tech savvy and cool. N97 is businessy type and boring. I am contemplating selling it and getting the new N86 the 8 megapixel snapper.

Re: Nokia N97

***Thx Maroushi…my initial choice is the iphone too however these rotten ppl won’t let you buy one without an A t & T contract and I don;t wanna get their two yr plan cuz i’m leaving soon …:vivo:

I wish there was someway to buy an unlocked iphone without getting a plan :hmmm:***

Re: Nokia N97

unlocked iphone:confused:

Re: Nokia N97

yeah the idiots here lock the phone so no one can use it till they buy a phone plan then they activate it :mad:

Re: Nokia N97

this video should shushhhh N97 haters, lol

iphone is toy, N97 is mini laptop with proper applications and has the best web browser. Iphone has introduced 3G technology now and Nokia has it on all of its top models for last 3 years.

iphone looks better in your hand, is more responsive, its camera is only 3mega pixel but takes better quality and sharper images, menus look better finished.

N97 is better value for money

Re: Nokia N97

Thx Lafffooo…i’m beginning to lean towards it :hmmm:

Re: Nokia N97

iphone is for losers. sorry but it is.

Nokia is king of phones. If you can afford it, go for it!

You can get everything.
check this Unlocked iPhone for only $ 860 or 32GB version for $999 only.
And yea these are not 3GS models.

I dont agree with that assessment at all. I have both phones right now, and the camera on the N97 is way superior. I mean its got a Carl Zeiss lens, dual LED flash, and not to mention its 5MP! I can post several pics of both cameras, taken together. Bottomline, Nokia knows how to make their camera phones. Also, the N97 supports multi-threading, the Iphone does not so I dont know what your third ‘con’ was referring to. I agree with the first one though, the touch interface on the N97 is resistive, and not as good as the capacitive one the Iphone has but thats just about the only thing thats inferior in the N97.

Yeah, plus Nokia's got style, Iphone reminds me of the Motorola Razr when they came out, everyone had one.

Re: Nokia N97

Spock, i was waiting for you to come to the N97’s rescue :hehe:

You have a point though… maybe i was too hasty to dismiss the N97.. :hmmm:

Re: Nokia N97

oh wow so I should stick to my N97 then..

haha! we actually ended up buying a 2nd one for sis, the white one this time.
